- Introduce Rewards:
Yes, you shouldn’t have to bribe your child to take medicine, but sometimes introducing a reward system will help.
Look at it like an encouragement system, as some children respond to positive rewards.
Everyday Health reported on a way to introduce visual rewards:
“Older kids will often respond to a reward system. “In addition to verbal praise, give kids a sticker and put it on a calendar after they take the medicine,” Giuliano suggests.
“They will feel rewarded, and they will also be able to follow their progress visually on the calendar.”
